Increased its bitterness and add

as they hare done this, they
have gotten nowhere so far as
the establishment of principles
or the improvement of condi

There are great masses of
people in this country who are
very slow to give up sweet privi

movement has been slow here

will never stop until every kind
of strike, as a means of carry
ing a point in a labor contro
versy, will be condemned, and
the masses of the orderly and
thinking people of the country
will be arrayed against it.
The most promising step yet
taken in this direction was the
creation of .the railroad labor
board, by legislative enactment
of the representatives of the
whole body of the people, the
congress of the United States.

gested point, it is no longer
good citizenship to be spouting
on the streets about the rights
and wrongs of this or that class,
in such a way as to encourage
and prolong contention over a
matter which should be regard
ed as legally settled. If a law,
on trial, appears to need amend
ing, or further legislation along
the same line seems to be need
ful, there are constitutional
methods which can be applied,
in which the whole body of the
people can Join. But If any per
son or any class holds that a
law does not yet perfectly regu
late the matter to which It ap
I plies, no person or class is there
by justified in setting the law
aside.
The peace and prosperity of
this country require that we
shall come to a point where no
such thing as a strike will be
resorted to as a means of set

Strikes are bad business, and
they do not promote good citi
zenship or good neighborship.

The Southern Pacific com
pany has made Its plans and an
nounced Its purpose to make
on the east side in Portland. Thts
work Includes the raising of Its
tracks for a long distance on
the approach to the river cross
ing, thereby eliminating a large
number of grade crossings,
which, with the growth of busi
ness on the east side, have now
become serious obstructions t
traffic. The total cost of all
the Improvements which the
company Is about to undertake
there Is estimated at $6,500,000.
Such an outlay as that on one
little patch of ground seems to
Indicate that the Southern Pa

A newspaper Jokester writes:
"Divorces keep people in circu

been that the more divorces the
fewer eople are put In circula

that where the fewest people
are put In circulation there the
moBt divorces occur.
